goUmbral 
goUmbral is a Go implementation of David Nuñez's threshold proxy re-encryption scheme: Umbral. Implemented with OpenSSL, goUmbral is an open-source cryptography library based on the referential python library, pyUmbral.
goUmbral is still in major development and the API in considered unstable. It will be changing a lot.

Quick Installation
OpenSSL is a required dependency. OpenSSL versions 1.1.0+ work but it is recommended to install OpenSSL version 1.1.1.
Install OpenSSL system wide or link to your local installation in the build.go file of umbral.
The NuCypher team uses Go for managing goUmbral's dependencies. The recommended installation procedure is as follows:
go get -u github.com/nucypher/goUmbral/umbral
Then just include the package at the top of your file:
import "github.com/nucypher/goUmbral/umbral"
Academic Whitepaper
The Umbral scheme academic whitepaper and cryptographic specifications are available on GitHub.
